What are some goals for your Etsy store?
I am trying to quit my daily job and work on my passions: craft and blogging...I'd like to create close relationship with the Etsy community and with my readers.


What item has been a ‘best-seller’ in your Etsy store ?
Well...I think that the Diana Camera brooch will be my best-seller because it is something that everyone can use: an adult in the office, a teenager at school but also during the free time, I love that brooch and I made one for me too.

How would you describe your style?
Fresh, old-school, basic...


Is this your full time work?
I am looking for a job right now, since the company (a start up in online games) where I used to work has shut down, so in this very moment doing craft and work on Etsy is my fulltime work, and I love to work on my own projects but in the same time by the moment I have to find an employed work.

Where do you do your work?
I share the desk with my boyfriend, half is mine half is his part. I don't need too much space so I can keep my computer on and have enough space to work..

How would you like to see Etsy develop in Germany?
I think that in Germany there are a lot of people looking at craft and do it yourself as a different way to escape from the city life. In US it is already a chance to escape and create a different way of living...I would like to see more people getting in touch with the Etsy world as a place for creativity (without thinking that craft is only an hobby).

What do you see as some of the benefits/potential benefits of being part of the German Etsy Street Team?
On one hand I am a supporter of the so called "shop local" and I would like to apply this theory on all the fields of my life that is why I think that the German Etsy Street Team can help me to discover what is close to me and vice versa. On the other hand, as I told in the first answer, I want to create close relationship with the Etsy community, I think that the best starting point is joining the German Etsy Street Team, don't you?
